About Nancy Mina

Recently moved from New York City area, I now have properties in France, Manhattan and lovely Florida. I love anything on or near the water. If you would like to view the property on the Mediterranean in Antibes France on Owner's Direct http://www.ownersdirect.co.uk/accommodation/p8133126l. I look forward to meeting you. Have made SO many friends that have shared my life there.

Nancy Mina purchased this house in 2010

Why Nancy Mina chose Lido Key

I chose Lido for the easy lifestyle. It is only 200 yards to the beach and I love to ride my bike all over the Island. People are polite and generous in spirit. Walking distance to st. Armand's circle..

What makes this house unique

Quiet, and serene. No need to leave the island as there are restaurants, beach, and a park at the end if the island. The best of all the keys near sarasota and very SAFE.

another great two weeks on Lido

This was our second year at this property. Loved it as much the second year as we did the first. Thanks for allowing us to bring our Shih Tsu. He loved the dog friendly neighborhood. Made a lot of friends. See you next year.

The house was nice and was great to be within walking distance of the beach. However we did not appreciate that the house on the same property just 30 feet behind our back door was occupied, especially since we were told it would be empty while we were there! Also, we found pet hair on the floor, sofa, and even the bed sheets. Also, another minor issue- some of the necessary supplies (coffee, hand soap, laundry soap, paper towel) were understocked. One very nice feature was the bikes- we had a good time biking around town and out to the beach. Thanks for letting us stay at your beach bungalow but we probably won't be back...

Owner's Response: Thank you for the feedback. The woman is only occasionally and sincere apologies. But my goodness never heard about pet hair.
The house is always where people stock their supplies but I leave basics.
Hope you had nice bike rides and walks on the beach.
Warmest regards

See you soon

Had a fantastic time. The home was perfect for us. All you need to bring is toiletries and food! We enjoyed the proximity to the beach and St. Armand's. We loved grilling and being able to do laundry! The home is comfortable with 2 beds/baths. Our bed was so relaxing! A cozy living room with tv allowed us to watch the football games. It was a nice, relaxing and can't wait to go back soon! Thanks Nancy!!

Prime location, cozy comfortable home

My family of 3 absolutely loved our stay at Nancy's wonderful home. The home has adorable curbside appeal and the interior is clean and comfortable. The front porch was perfect to have breakfast in the morning and enjoy the cool coastal breeze. The backyard was equally as enjoyable with a lovely fountain. The beds are donned with a plush mattress cover that put you right to sleep after a day at the beach. Best of all, the beach is just a short 3 minute walk away and St. Armand's Circle is about a 10 minute walk. The bikes are a nice touch and make getting around fun. Every detail is thought of from the kitchen to the bathrooms. It was nice having beach towels/chairs/umbrella and a small cooler there for use each day. A real bonus is the washer/dryer for use during the week. We cannot wait to return to this cozy little bungalow! We made memories that will surely last a lifetime. Thank you, Nancy! 🐚 🌊 ⛵️ ⚓️ 🐳 🐟 🌴 🍹
